ANGELES, CA (August 14, 2014) – The scariest comedy of all time gets resurrected as Young
Frankenstein: 40th Anniversary arrives on Blu-ray September 9 from
Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment. Comedy icons Gene Wilder, Peter
Boyle, Cloris Leachman, Marty Feldman, Teri Garr and Madeline Kahn star in Mel
Brooks’ brilliantly outrageous riff on Mary Shelley’s classic story of
Frankenstein. After inheriting his grandfather’s castle in Transylvania, young
Dr. Frankenstein (Wilder) follows in his ancestor’s freaky footsteps as he sets
out to reanimate a dead body in Brooks’ “funniest, most cohesive comedy to
date.” (The New York Times)
Young
Frankenstein was nominated for two Academy Awards* and two Golden
Globe Awards**. More than 40 years later, the film has stood the
test of time, ranking at lucky number 13 on the American Film Institute’s list
of the top 100 funniest films.
In
celebration of the 40th anniversary, fans of Young Frankenstein can
also enter themselves for a chance to win an autographed set photo from the man
himself, Mel Brooks! Beginning on September 1, fans can go to www.YoungFrankSweeps.com for all
